Hellow everyone, I am in search for a culture of live copepods, I have a spotted mandarin fish that was keeping very well but has recently started loosing weight. I checked online stores but the shipping is as much as the product itself, I figures I would check here and see if anyone has any cultured, extra bottles they would like to sell or get togeter and make a combined order, anyway thank you, I am sure the little guy would appreciate any help in getting him fattened up.
 
I have a culture of Tiggerpods. Coral Reef Aquatics sells bottles of Tiggerpods, too.

While I can share with you a starter culture, it won't sustain your mandarin until you can grow enough of them. In the mean time, you can offer your mandarin some live brine shrimp. All my mandarins love live adult brine shrimp. They also eat newly hatched brine shrimp, but adult ones are meatier. They also eat amphipods, too, if they see some crawling around.
